There is nothing quite like sunshine after the rain, especially in a city as wet as Vancouver. We were recently blessed with a week of sunny skies, and I was happily able to do one of my favourite things in the city: grab a good latte and spend the afternoon exploring Gastown. And on this particular day, even in this non-weather appropriate outfit, I actually kind of felt – dare I say it? – warm! Here’s to the slowly but surely approaching spring season and the optimism that it brings. Happy Monday!
Wearing: J.Crew shirt (in a smaller gingham print here) and jacket, Aritzia pants, Zara boots (old), Jimmy Choo wallet (c/o – love this nude colour)

  4. Not only does the wonderful bright colors help brighten up your afternoon, I think your smile is the best addition to your outfit and this post. Was that cheesy? Probably, but your smile made me smile. =)

  5. Would never think to put all of these pieces together but you totally pulled this look off and inspired me in the process :-)

  6. Yay for sunshine! I am thankful to live in such a sunny state, but I love it when it rains, too. It’s been rainy the past couple of days, which has made it a challenge to get out of bed. I just wanted to cuddle with Pooma under the covers. hahaha.

    I love the mix of gingham and tweed. I’m totally lusting over gingham right now and even have a green gingham taffeta gown in the works. Here’s hoping my execution of it is spot on!

    Have a great week, my love.

    xx Love & Aloha

  11. These photos are so adorable and your outfit is just as cute. I know what you mean about being “warm” in this weather we’ve been having. I’ve been trying to get away not wearing a heavy coat and it works on some days! I’m obsessed with your boots too, they’re the perfect colour and height.

  12. Love this! I have that blazer and struggle a bit with how to wear it but I have similarly colored pants so maybe I can put something together ;)

  13. I love the play of texture + print while staying in a mostly monochromatic scheme in this ensemble… I really want to sport a similar outfit to it. You’ve inspired me. Yet again. ^_^
